Research Interests
Regional Development Economics/Urban Economics. Empirical/theoretical research
and analysis of Bangkok.
This research investigates physical changes in urban structure/space and
the occupational changes of individuals in the urban community. The research
bs the period from the late 1980s, now referred to as the start of globalization,
to the present. The aim is to make clear how urban structural changes in
the macro context of "economics" and "labor" impact
the "labor" and "life" of individuals on the micro
level and how individuals react and respond to such changes.
The main research topic is the informal economy in Bangkok. Due to a big
fire at the research site in 2004, the research topic has changed slightly
and is now looking closely at the "cost" and "risk"management
of workers in the informal economy.
